Thank for the interesting photos but you talk in riddles!
What is a DRB?
Never heard or seen that game been played. I only know marabaraba.
Was the arial photo taken from a drone?
Lovely composition, great variety and a straight line, jackal proof border fence.
Since I put these pictures here yesterday Dawie, more than one hundred fresh views have happened, i suppose they took a quick look and left, and they did not worry about the drivel (riddles) that i wrote. I put the pictures up to hopefully entertain the hundred and the drivel entertains me! Some of yesterday's riddle refers to, amongst others, the women with water buckets on their heads.
But thank you for asking:
1. Firstly I have a Deep Rural Background ie DRB, and was wondering if any others with this impediment had witnessed the events mentioned in point 2 and point 3 below.
2. I recently asked if anyone had attended or heard about the annual women's bicycle race in Botswana as I wish to attend it.
3. Then there is a marvellous horse racing event that the Zulus host every year, which i also wish to attend. It has a very unusual twist in that all the contestants are only allowed to use a gait called single footing, in which the horse only has one hoof in contact with the ground at a time. It looks even more fun than the Lesotho highlands horse races.
4. There are other DR things that interest me also like the Venda picture of the tactical game called
kalaha or
mancala (or any of 800 other names it has). This game is thousands of years old and a recent excavation of biblical Gedala in Israel unearthed it there also. The men in the village i photographed gather there in the late afternoons and play.
5. I have no drone. Someone else's picture?
6. Thank you for your comments on the de Aar picture. I know little about what makes, for example, wine to be good and what not, and even less as far as the virtues and vices of photographs are concerned.But I am freshly astounded by the world around me every day and I hope that this thread makes others also realize this. We live in a very beautiful place.
